Finally, Big B will be on Twitter

Amitabh Bachchan finally take time out and do all those things which he always wanted to do in his life but couldn’t. “I was gifted a piano sometime ago. Though sometimes I try to play the instrument when I am alone, I can’t play a note. I want to learn how to play the piano. Whenever I see it there (in one of the rooms at his bungalow Prateeksha) I feel like playing it. God willing, I will be able to play it soon. I had wanted to play a musical instrument for a long time. Long ago, I used to see Pandit Ravi Shankar playing the sitar. At that time even I tried playing the instrument many times. It didn’t happen. I think it’s time to realise my dream now,” Amitabh replied with a smile.

Other than this Big B will start taking lessons in various languages. “French and Spanish are the languages that I wanted to speak fluently. If I don’t start learning them now, I won’t be able to do it ever. Also, I want to speak Malayalam. I am told that it is a very tough language but someday I will learn it. Whatever Tamil and Malayalam you have seen me speaking in my films were all mugged up,” Amitabh added.

Big B also disclosed that his son Abhishek has been encouraging him to devote some time for the social networking site Twitter. A few days back he got himself registered on Twitter. “I have completed all the formalities (filled the e-form) and I am registered on Twitter now. But I am just there and I have not starting tweeting yet,” says Amitabh.
